FR: Skip button to skip over a file during checksum verification #18

Open redactedscribe opened 1 year ago

redactedscribe commented 1 year ago

Once double-clicking a checksum file to verify its checksums, it will do so for every specified file. Sometimes however I'm not interested in verifying the checksum of a very large file out of a list of files, and waiting for it to be hashed just to see the results for the other files is inconvenient.

It's true that I could edit the checksum file and comment out the large file's line (#), or do so for a copy of the checksum file, but it still wouldn't be as convenient as simply pressing Skip once the large file begins verification. No copying, editing, and clean-up, just Skip.

Edit: The large file can also be temporarily renamed to avoid being verified. Any modification to files opens the door to various issues, e.g. Temporarily renaming a file which is being cloud-synced would cause it to begin uploading.

Thanks!
